To set up or modify a source-code distribution so that it configures and
|
|
|
|
builds using the GNU project's autoconf/automake/libtools suite. Among
|
|
|
|
open-source hackers, a mere running binary of a program is not considered a
|
|
|
|
full release; what's interesting is a source tree that can be built into
|
|
|
|
binaries using standard tools. Since the mid-1990s, autoconf and friends
|
|
|
|
been the standard way to adapt a distribution for portability so that it can
|
|
|
|
be built on multiple operating systems without change.
